Potential Singer

Right now I am hearing someone outside singing a beautiful song at the karaoke. It might be at the neighborhood. I love her voice! She has a potential in becoming a singer someday. If only a talent scout can hear her right now. Or should I say If only I am a talent scout. I will surely get her. hahahaha! She can be a star if that happens. She can work with a band with nice and great instruments. Maybe a Bbe at musicians friend will be suggested as a gift to her if she will be interested in playing in a band. A plus if she knows how to play an instrument right? Ok now I am day dreaming! I should take a nap now. hahaha!

12 hours

Cate is one amazing child. She woke up at 9:30 am yesterday and slept at 9 in the evening. She didn’t take a nap in the afternoon! My goodness! I am losing my temper when she said no when I told her to go to bed and take her nap. I just let her be and she played and played all day. I tried tiring her up by letting her run around the house. But that didn’t work.

Right now she is having her afternoon nap. Thank goodness! We will have a nice mood when she wakes up later.

Restaurant Website Builder

A friend is looking for someone who can make their restaurant’s website. I saw her post the other day on facebook and I instantly thought of the site where they make the website. I was thinking where I saw that site before. And thank God I remembered now. I am going to recommend to her this restaurant website builder that I know of. Off to send her an email. Tahtah!

Mom, Can you relate to this photo? LOL!

Facebook changed my mother. Before, she will go home during lunch time, take a nap and go back to the office. And in the afternoon, she will clean the house, cook dinner, watch TV and bond/talk to us about how our day went. But today she won’t go home during lunch time, just stay in the office and in the afternoon after work, she will change clothes and sit in front of her computer until dinner is served. I miss the old mom. I just hope she will realize that not everything is in facebook. Yes we are there also but the memories she will build with us cannot be found in facebook. =(

Taking Down Notes

… on what to give to my family, friends and relatives this Christmas. I have a long list and I haven’t done any Christmas shopping yet. I want everybody to feel special, to let them know that I remembered to give something to them this Christmas. I am thinking of giving the girls some hair accessories since my dear friend makes lovely hair trinkets. And I'll just buy montecristo cigars for my uncles and guy friends who smokes. =) Now that slashes almost half on my list. Yey!

Cate’s New Headbands

This is my daughter’s new headbands from dainty ashley. Thank you to Cate’s ninang Zanne and tita Mai (the owner of dainty ashley) for these beautiful hair accessories. This was their gift for my daughter’s birthday last October. Me and Cate loves them so much! I will order soon for Christmas presents. The perfect gift for your little fashionista! Go get them now!

UN celebration

We attended the United Nation Celebration at my niece's school last October 25. My two niece joined the costume contest but sad to say they didn't won the award. But it's ok they are the cutest Korean and Spanish little girls ever! I am happy to see their performance at school. It is rare that I got to attend a special event in their school. It was an honored to be invited.
One thing I noticed is that the amplifier that the school was using is broken. I think they need to take a look at the Epifani Amplifiers at musicians friend, they might want to get one to replace the one they are using right now. The price is reasonable and I am sure they have the money to buy it. I hope they will replace it soon for the benefit of the students and parents too.

We’re Back!

We are back from our vacation in Manila. And I am so happy to be back to our normal routine. We had a good sleep last night ( I forgot to turn of the laptop because I am so tired). I woke up early as my son woke me up at 5am. And can’t go back to sleep so I just checked FB for comments on the photos I posted and checked emails too. I am tired but had a great time on our vacation.

Done!

Finally after a month of planning my daughters birthday party is over. I can now breathe! Whew! But I am not yet back to my regular routine as we will go on a vacation. So my hunt for a patio flooring will be on hold. I will get back to it when we get home next week. I hope this vacation will be a good one. I can't wait to see my friends!

Finally the Tutu Arrived!

Yey! Finally the birthday outfit of the birthday girl arrived a few hours after I posted my waiting for the tutu post last Friday. I am so happy! And wow I love the quality of my purchase. Definitely a good buy for me! I will bookmark the seller and recommend it to other friends who needs outfit for their little girls. Such a great seller she is.

My Daughter’s Birthday Outfit

I am waiting for the tutu skirt of my daughter to arrive today. She will wear it on her 2nd birthday next week. She has this birthday girl top similar to the one she wore on her 1st birthday photo shoot but it’s white. I can’t wait for her to wear it.

We will have a photo shoot today just here at home and me as the photographer. I hope she will cooperate and have a few decent shot. We did a photo shoot yesterday and there are only a few good shots plus the background is so so. I don’t have nice background here so I will just shoot without one. Let’s see if this is going to succeed. And please no tantrums now.

Ok will go check dock ramps online first as hubby said my Father in law is looking for one. Bye for now!

Marie Biscuit

Cate and Hans love Marie Time Biscuit. It is soft and easy to swallow. Cate can eat 4 pack in just one sitting. Of course I can only give Hans 2 biscuit. He is such a biscuit monster too! I have to limit him into 2 a day. haha! I bought the bigger Marie biscuit but it is not for babies. It’s not the soft and doesn’t melts in your mouth. Thank God I found this at the grocery near us. I can easily go buy if we ran out.

New scissors

I just bought a new scissor yesterday. Why? Nothing. I just need to buy something. haha! The one at home is nowhere to find so I need a new one. I hope Cate didn’t played with it. I saw there are hair cutting shears there and I looked at the price and it was too expensive for me. it is a good gift for Christmas for a friend who is a hairdresser. I will just order it online. Less hassle and easy to pay too. With just a click I can have that in a day or two. I need save up for that though.

Meltdown

This is the stage in which Cate easily melts down. She do this everyday! When she doesn’t get what she wants she throw tantrums at us. I don’t know what to do to her when she do this. I want to comfort her sometimes but I don’t want spoil her either. She needs to learn that not everything is available for her. Terrible twos here we go!

Feel the Music

I love listening to music when scrapping. And as I am listening I am trying to imagine what instruments the musicians are playing. I think there are Harke bass amps musicians friend to the one I am listening now. I love it! I am hoping to watch an opera someday. The music is relaxing and my ears deserve a time to hear good music. All I can hear nowadays are horns and the sound of the cars outside. Ugh!

What’s for Snack?

I am so hungry already. It’s 4:30pm now and I asked our helper what’s for snack. And she told me we are having Hamburger but with Cheese ketchup and hotdog in it. Simple snack but still yummy! Yay! I will stop what I am doing first and head to the kitchen to eat snack. I’ll be back later.

What’s your snack by the way?

A Musician

Before I don't even know what Fender is all about until I became a wife to my husband who is a musician. Well, he is not in a band anymore but he still knows all those music and instrument words that I don’t know. And I asked what fender is when I came across that word online and he said it is one of the leading instrumental company. His brother has been dreaming to own a guitar by Fender. He’s the one who is still active in performing in a band. I love music too and this is one of the things that me and my husband have in common.

Cates Playmates

I love having Cate’s playmates here in our house. She have a social life! not like Mama who doesn’t have one. haha! I love seeing my daughter play with her playmates. I wish they can stay but they have school on weekdays. They are just here on weekends. And sometimes they stay at my parents house so we just go there so Cate can play with them too. I am sad that Cate doesn’t have a playmate on regular days but me. It’s still different if she plays with a same age bracket kids than playing with an adult like me. I wish we have a play school nearby.

Ber Months

BER months are here and Christmas is just around the corner. I would like to get some leather wallets to give to my cousins this Christmas. I need to do a list on who will receive something from me. Yes as early as now I will do my Christmas list as I get to be busy with taking care of my kids, being a house wife to my husband and other occasions to attend. And oh I am so excited for our family get together this December.

Sleep Deprived

Hello 3 hours of sleep! Ugh! I hate this!

My daughter slept late last night plus I worked for 2 hours after that. Slept at 3am and my son woke up at 6am. Argh! I must sleep later when my kids take their nap. I badly need energy.

For now I will just use up my remaining energy to play with my kiddos.

Bye for now!
